At this point, I've tried most combinations of Fallout Mod Manager, Nexus Mod Manager, Fallout Script Extender and LOOT.
For example, some said to use Fallout Mod Manager and not bother with Nexus Mod Manager, while others said to use Nexus Mod Manager and not even install Fallout Mod Manager. To make matters worse, most of the guides I found contradicted each other or even themselves. Any time the guides referenced a Steam-based file path, I changed it to my best guess at the equivalent path on my machine, but otherwise I followed the instructions as stated. All of the guides I could find were for the Steam version of the game. I never see any error messages or crashes, the game just starts up with no mods present no matter what I do. I have tried to follow numerous online guides, but none of them helped. It might be important to know that I got it from GOG, not Steam. I want to use mods with it, but can't get a single one to work. I just performed a clean install of Fallout 3 GOTY edition (version 1.7.0.3) on Win10.
